Problem when switching from Volume Pedal to Wah-Wah using the Toe Switch

[Paolofrigerio]

Problem Description

I currently use the Volume Pedal in Position 2. When I want to switch to the Wah-Wah in Position 1, I have to press the pedal all the way down to activate the Toe Switch.

However, during this transition, the volume automatically increases, which should not happen.

As a result, every time I activate the Wah-Wah using the pedal's Toe Switch, there is an unwanted increase in volume.

Expected Behaviour

I would like to be able to activate the Wah-Wah using a dedicated STOMP switch.

When I activate the Wah-Wah STOMP, the expression pedal should automatically switch to Wah-Wah mode (Position 2), without causing any increase in volume.

Desired Toe Switch Behaviour

The Toe Switch should only be used to switch between the Volume and Wah-Wah functions, and vice versa.

When I activate the Wah-Wah STOMP, the pedal should automatically be assigned to the Wah-Wah function, without requiring me to press the Toe Switch.

The Toe Switch should therefore allow switching between the two functions only when necessary, without causing any changes or increases in the overall volume.

Support Request

Please confirm whether this behaviour can be achieved through the correct EXP pedal configuration or whether this is a firmware issue.

In summary: The Volume function must remain completely independent of Wah-Wah activation and operation. Switching between the two pedal functions must never cause an unwanted increase in the overall volume.

I am not sure that I understand your "must never cause an unwanted increase in the overall volume" statement. Under normal circumstances, and to my knowledge any multi-function pedal, the pedal will go to 100% when engaging the toe switch to switch to the secondary pedal function. This is why many players use dedicated volume and wah pedals. The Stadium can accommodate both via EXP2/3.

 

NOTE: There is a way to assign a different minimum and maximum volume for the volume pedal so that it will not go to 100%. You can assign it to a stomp switch or preset snapshot and assign it to any arbitrary range )e.g. 20% to 60% volume as min and max instead of 0% to 100%.

 

Can you further clarify what you are attempting to do.

If you use the XL pedal to set overall volume versus for volume swells, then the switching isn't really helpful.  You really need a second pedal.
